- 1 1/2 lbs. chicken cut into serving pieces
- 2 pieces eggs
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 3 cups cooking oil
Marinade ingredients:
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 2 teaspoons salt
- 1/2 teaspoon ground white pepper
- 1 cup lemon lime soda (such as 7Up)
Combine chicken with marinade ingredients in a bowl. Mix well. Marinate for at least 3 hours. Drain the remaining marinade afterwards.
Heat oil in a deep fryer or deep pot.
Beat egg in a bowl. Dredge chicken in flour and then dip in beaten egg. Double coat by dredging in flour again. Shake off excess flour. Perform this step to all chicken pieces.
Deep fry for a total of 15 minutes. Note: you can go longer if needed. If using lesser oll, fry one side for 10 minutes. Flip and fry the opposite side for 5 to 8 minutes.
Remove the chicken from the fryer and place over a wire rack to cool down. Transfer to a serving plate. Serve and enjoy!
